Protein Summary

The YP_679100 (former ID: ZP_00311070) gene of C. hutchinsonii ATCC 33406 encodes a protein with sequence similarity to NagD proteins from COG0647 (predicted sugar phosphatases of the HAD superfamily). Similar proteins belong to all divisions of Life but viruses.

In a cleft created by several highly conserved residues, there are two ligand molecules (from the crystallization medium: EPE and EDO) and a magnesium ion. Ligand EPE interacts with highly conserved Thr168 and Asp169. Among magnesium ion coordinated residues is highly conserved Asp232.
